KFI Scores

KFI Scores measure the financial health of all U.S. banks and credit unions each quarter on an A through E scale using Call Report data. Our model incorporates various asset quality, capital adequacy, earnings performance, and liquidity and funding measures for managing counterparty risk and robust peer analysis.

From 2010 through 2023, more than 96% of banks that failed had a KFI Score of D or lower in the quarter prior to the FDIC date of failure, according to KFI data.
